Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

Title VII of the CRA

Explanation:

Title VII of the Civil Rights Act (CRA) is a landmark federal law that aims to protect employees against discrimination based on race, colour, sex, nation of origin, or religion.

The act was made law in 1964.

In the given scenario a female sales representative with excellent performance review was not promoted for 8 years, while Jim a male sales representative was promoted in just 18 months.

This is a gender based discrimination and is covered by Title VII of the CRA.

Age discrimination does not apply because it addresses discrimination of employees with minimum age of 40 years.

Equity act requires that employees on the same job role are compensated equally. This does not also apply.

Rehabilitation act prevents discrimination based on disability. This does not also apply

Answer:

(A) 1,200 Margin of Safety_{units}

(B) 330,000 Margin of Safety_{usd}

(C) Margin of Safety 40% of Sales

Explanation:

(A)

$Sales \: Revenue - Variable \: Cost = Contribution \: Margin$

275 - 150 = 125 CM per unit

$\frac{Fixed\:Cost}{Contribution \:Margin} = Break\: Even\: Point_{units}$

$\frac{225,000}{125} = 1,800 = Break\: Even\: Point_{units}$

${units \: sold- BEP_{units} = margin \: of \: safety_{units}$

3,000 - 1,800 = 1,200 Margin of Safety_{units}

HOW? we Calculate the contribution per unit. Then the BEP in units and with that the margin of safety in units.

(B)

$\frac{Contribution Margin}{Sales Revenue} = $Contribution Margin Ratio$

125/275 = 0.45454545 = 5/11 CM ratio

$\frac{Fixed\:Cost}{Contribution \:Margin \:Ratio} = Break\: Even\: Point_{dollars}$

225,000/(5/11) = 495,000 BEP USD

${current \:sales - BEP_{USD} = margin \: of \: safety$

825,000-495,000 = 330,000 Margin of Safety_{usd}

HOW? we Calculate the contribution ratio by dividing CM over sales. Then the BEP in dollars and with that the margin of safety in dollars.

Important: When posible to avoid rounding errors express as fraction iof posible

(C)

$\frac{current \:sales - BEP_{USD}}{current \:sales} \times 100 = margin \: of \: safety$

$\frac{330,000}{825,000} \times 100 = margin \: of \: safety$

Margin of Safety 40%

A company can achieve lower production costs and increase productivity by improving quality of its products or services so that budget can be reduced by correcting any quality issue in the product or service which can be expensive, but less than external failures

Also, production equipment efficiency can be increased if preventive maintenance can be followed as it helps to reduce operating costs per unit.

MariettaO [177]

Answer:

Proposal A: $185,714.29

Proposal B: $160,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

$10,000 for installations to be completed.

The revenue generated by each unit is $ 20.00

Proposal A:

Fixed costs= 55,000

The variable cost is $13.00

Proposal B:

Fixed costs= 70,000

The variable cost is $10.00

Break-even point (dollars)= fixed costs/ contribution margin ratio

Proposal A: (55,000+10,000)/[(20-13)/20]= $185,714.29

Proposal B: (70,000 + 10,000)/[(20-10)/20]= $160,000
